[Diagnostic and prognostic value of specific immune response to Cytomegaloviruses in pregnant women with a history of habitual abortion].

The authors analyze the usefulness of specific serologic tests for anti-CMV antibodies of the IgG and IgM classes for the prediction of the course of pregnancy and choice of immunocorrective therapy of women suffering from habitual abortions. Detection of specific IgM antibodies to cytomegalovirus with the use of Abbott diagnostic system was found highly informative, for it permitted a differential diagnosis of the cause of habitual abortions and monitoring of the treatment efficacy. Enzyme immunoassay of TBH in blood serum samples of pregnant women helped monitor the course of pregnancy.
